@yo-its-me saidI haven't eaten smarties in years.
They're all meant to have a different flavour aren't they?
Orange smarties have a different flavour- don't know if you've noticed
Purple skittles are now grape flavoured, I could have sworn that they were blackberry or something before.

Tell the world your unforgettable stories that may be forgotten by them, but not you.
I had recently taken 2nd place at an arm wrestling tournament and of course the next day it was time to celebrate... again...
So me and the current misses go to the booze store and I'm wearing my big second place medal with pride βΊοΈ
We go to the cash register and the cashier says "wha ...[text shortened]... en someone is second place, you're either the guy who won or you're not"
I'll never forget that π€

once upon a time,
i was pulled over by what i thought was a norfolk, virginia policeman for a traffic violation
the bed of my pickup was indeed loaded with empty beer cans, awaiting recycling
as i pulled to the side of the road i decided to jump out, talk to the officer, and take my ticket like a man
but it wasn't "just the police"
nope
it was a narcotics detective, an ...[text shortened]... ls were engraved on the copper jacketing

I'm not sure about purple being blackberry but green used to be lime, now it's apple, yuk.
@gambrel saidYou're right, lime to apple. Madness.
